Optimizing Bankfull Discharge and Hydraulic Geometry Relations for Streams in New York State1

Mulvihill, Christiane I. and Barry P. Baldigo, 2012. Optimizing Bankfull Discharge and Hydraulic Geometry Relations for Streams in New York State. Journal of the American Water Resources Association (JAWRA) 48(3): 449-463. DOI: 10.1111/j.1752-1688.2011.00623.x Abstract: This study analyzes how various data stratification schemes can be used to optimize the accuracy and utility of regional hydraulic geometry (HG) models of bankfull discharge, width, depth, and cross-sectional area for streams in New York. Topographic surveys and discharge records from 281 cross sections at 82 gaging stations with drainage areas of 0.52-396 square miles were used to create log-log regressions of region-based relations between bankfull HG metrics and drainage area. The success with which regional models distinguished unique bankfull discharge and HG patterns was assessed by comparing each regional model to those for all other regions and a pooled statewide model. Gages were also stratified (grouped) by mean annual runoff (MAR), Rosgen stream type, and water-surface slope to test if these models were better predictors of HG to drainage area relations. Bankfull discharge models for Regions 4 and 7 were outside the 95% confidence interval bands of the statewide model, and bankfull width, depth, and cross-sectional area models for Region 3 differed significantly (p < 0.05) from those of other regions. This study found that statewide relations between drainage area and HG were strongest when data were stratified by hydrologic region, but that co-variable models could yield more accurate HG estimates in some local regional curve applications.     

气相沿面放电—活性炭纤维吸附联合降解双酚A废水研究

利用气相沿面放电—活性炭纤维(ACF)吸附(简称放电—吸附)联合处理含双酚A(BPA)废水,探讨了联合处理对BPA的降解效果,并通过处理过程中O3利用率变化以及处理前后ACF的表观状态变化分析了反应的作用机制。结果表明,放电—吸附联合处理相比单独放电和单独ACF吸附能显著提高BPA的降解率;在一定范围内,加大放电电压能提高放电—吸附联合处理的BPA降解效果,但放电电压超过一定值后,放电产生的O3量进一步增多,对ACF表面的结构破坏作用增加,反而导致BPA的降解效果降低,本研究较佳的放电电压为8.5kV;扫描电镜分析结果表明,经放电—吸附联合处理后,ACF表面出现大量的孔道,提高了表面的BPA富集浓度,同时也增加反应的活性位点;傅里叶变换红外光谱分析结果表明,联合处理后ACF表面的C—O、C=C、O—H等官能团都有所减少,可能是联合处理过程中O3等活性物质与ACF表面的这些还原性官能团发生了反应,诱导O3分解出了更多的自由基,从而促进了BPA的降解。     

脉冲电絮凝法处理黄连素废水

以Fe为电极,采用脉冲电絮凝法对实际黄连素制药废水进行处理。为了确定脉冲电絮凝法处理黄连素废水最优工艺条件,选择占空比、电流密度、脉冲频率、电极间距和pH等5个因素,开展了正交实验研究。对正交实验结果进行极差与方差分析,确定了各因素的显著性及优选条件。结果表明,各因素对废水COD去除率影响程度依次为:占空比>pH>电极间距>脉冲频率>电流密度;对黄连素去除率影响程度依次为:占空比>pH>电流密度>脉冲频率>电极间距。最优工艺条件为电极间距为1.5 cm,电流密度为16.7 mA/cm2(电流3.5 A,电压11.2 V),占空比为0.4,脉冲频率为0.1 kHz,pH为10,此时废水的COD与黄连素的去除率分别为61%与74%。     

加药量和水力搅拌速度对雨水混凝效果的影响

为降低分流制雨水中悬浮颗粒物及其他污染物浓度,减轻城市景观河道的水体富营养化程度,对取自泵站的雨水进行混凝沉淀工艺优化实验。以PAC为混凝剂,采用Zeta电位仪、激光粒度仪和iPDA在线监测技术对混凝过程进行监测,考察了混凝剂投加量和水力搅拌速度对絮体形成和分流制雨水处理效果的影响,结果表明,混凝剂投加量和混合水力搅拌速度直接影响絮体Zeta电位和聚沉特性;混合搅拌速度控制混凝反应速率,絮凝速度梯度影响絮体形成粒径。FI曲线特征参数对控制混凝工艺具有指导意义。PAC投加量为35 mg/L,混合阶段搅拌速度800 r/min,搅拌30 s,絮凝阶段采用150、108和60 r/min的转速各自搅拌5 min,沉后水中剩余颗粒总数最少,浊度、COD和总磷去除效果最佳。     

高频脉冲介质阻挡放电去除水中17β-雌二醇

实验采用高频脉冲介质阻挡放电工艺处理水体中的17β-雌二醇（E2）。结果表明,该工艺可以有效地降解水中的E2,E2的降解过程符合一级反应动力学模型。当体系脉冲峰-峰电压为24kV,初始浓度为100μg／L的E2在超纯水中的降解一级反应速率常数为0．1314min^-1。E2的降解速率常数随脉冲峰-峰电压的增大而升高,随E2初始浓度和溶液初始pH增加而降低,溶液初始电导率对E2的降解影响不大。

Pulsed discharge plasma induced Fenton-like reactions for the enhancement of the degradation of 4-chlorophenol in water

To sufficiently utilize chemically active species and enhance the degradation rate and removal efficiency of toxic and biorefractory organic pollutant para-chlorophenol (para-CP), the introductions of iron metal ions (Fe²⁺/Fe³⁺) into either pulsed discharge plasma (PDP) process or the PDP process with TiO₂ photo-catalyst were tentatively performed. The experimental results showed that under the same experimental condition, the degradation rate and removal efficiency of para-CP were greatly enhanced by the introduction of iron ions (Fe²⁺/Fe³⁺) into the PDP process. Moreover, when iron ions and TiO₂ were added together in the PDP process, the degradation rate and removal energy of para-CP further improved. The possible mechanism was discussed that the obvious promoting effects were attributed to ferrous ions via plasma induced Fenton-like reactions by UV light irradiation excited and hydrogen peroxide formed in pulsed electrical discharge, resulting in a larger amount of hydroxyl radicals produced from the residual hydrogen peroxide. In addition, the regeneration of ferric ions to ferrous ions facilitates the progress of plasma induced Fenton-like reactions by photo-catalytic reduction of UV light, photo-catalytic reduction on TiO₂ surface and electron transfer of quinone intermediates, i.e. 1,4-hydroquinone and 1,4-benzoquinone.
